"The first time we ever played a big concert like this in Las Vegas, the momentum of our careers was super charged,” he said. “Now, to not only be on the bill for the inaugural Scars & Stripes music festival but to also be a part of the incredible team putting this massive show together is game-changing. Performing for our nation’s military is always the utmost honor for us.”
